不定式作定语的用法
不定式作定语的用法 不定式及其短语作定语，与其他短语作定语一样，一般都放在被修饰的词之后，通常表示一个将来的动作，有时也可以表示某一过去的特定动作。 一些名词后常用不定式作定语，如：chance(机会），way(方法），time(时间）等；另外， the first,the second,the last,the only等作名词或者它们作形容词用来修饰代词，它们或它们所修饰的代词后，也常用不定式作定语。 不定式作定语时，不定式与被修饰词之间存在的关系复杂，有的是主谓关系；有的是动宾关系；有的是动状关系，还有的不存在主谓、动宾、动状关系。 1、主谓关系的（1）We must find a person to do the work. (2) There is no one to take care of her. (3) In my family,my mother is always the first one to get up. (4) He is always the first to come and the last to leave. (5) We need someone to go and get a doctor. 2、动宾关系的如果不定式与被修饰的词在逻辑上存在动宾关系，不定式里的动词必须是及物动词。注意：是及物动词的，后面不要再加宾语，因为前面的被修饰词是它的宾语；是不及物动词的，要加上适当的介词或副词让它变成及物动词，只有这样，它才能带上前面的宾语。 （1） He has a lot of books to read.(2) I would like a magazine to look at. (3) Here is some advice for you to follow.(4) Do you have anything else to say? (5) There is no one to take care of.(6) She has nothing to worry about. 3、动状关系的被修饰词如果是不定式里动词的状语，应多用介词短语。由于被修饰词前没有介词，所以只能在不定式里的动词后加介词。（1）Please give me some paper to write on. (2) Let"s find a room to put these things in (3） I have no house to live in. (4) He has no pen to write with.(5) There are five pairs to choose from. 4、不存在主谓、动宾、动状关系的被修饰词与不定式里的动词不存在主谓、动宾、动状关系的，被修饰词多是些抽象名词。（1）I have no time to go to the movie. （2）There"s no need to send for a doctor. (3) Where"s the best place to meet? (4) Is that the way to do it?(5） I"m not sure about his ability to complete the task alone. 现在分词作定语状语的用法 现在分词在句中起形容词和副词的作用。现在分词用定语时相当于一个定语从句；作状语表示时间、原因、条件等时相当于一个状语从句。然而，我们在使用现在分词时应注意两方面的问题。 时，应注意下列三点： 1.现在分词表示的动作和谓语动词表示的动作是一先一后发生而不是同时发生时，不能用现在分词作定语，应使用定语从句表示。如： The teacher criticized the student having broken the window. The teacher criticized the student who had broken the window. Do you know anyone having lost a car ? Do you know anyone who have lost a car ? 2.being可用状语或补语，但不可作定语。如： Anybody being outside after ten o’clock will be criticized. Anybody who is outside after ten o’clock will be criticized.

动词不定式用法归纳
动词不定式用法归纳 动词不定式没有人称和数的变化，在句中不能独立作谓语。但动词不定式具有名词、形容词和副词特征，在句中可以作主语、宾语、宾语补足语、定语、表语和状语等多种成分。另外，动词不定式具有动词特点，可以有自己的宾语和状语，组成动词不定式短语。动词不定式的肯定形式是to＋do；其否定形式是not to＋do。 1．作主语 可以直接作主语。如： To see is to believe． 但在英语中，常用it作形式主语，真正的主语即动词不定式放在后面。如： It's wrong to play tricks on other people． It's our duty to keep our environment clean and tidy．（Lesson 10）． 点击规律：动词不定式在句中作主语时，常放在It is ＋adj．（形容词）＋to do sth．或 It is ＋n．（名词）＋to do sth．句型中，it仅作形式主语。 2．作宾语 a.以下动词只能to do 作宾语。 attempt企图 enable能够 neglect忽视 afford负担得起 demand要求 long渴望 arrange 安排 mean意欲，打算 begin开始 expect期望 appear似乎，显得 determine决定 manage设法 cease停止 hate憎恨，厌恶 pretend假装 ask问 need需要 agree同意 desire愿望 love爱 swear宣誓 volunteer志愿 wish希望 bear承受 endeavor努力 offer提供 beg请求 fail不能 plan计划 bother扰乱；烦恼 forget忘记 prefer喜欢，宁愿 care关心，喜欢 happen碰巧 prepare准备 decide决定 learn学习 regret抱歉，遗憾 choose选择 hesitate犹豫 profess表明 claim要求 hope希望 promise承诺，允许 start 开始 undertake承接 want想要 intend想要 refuse拒绝 decide决定 learn学习 contrive设法，图谋 incline有…倾向 propose提议 seek找，寻觅 try试图 b．love，like ，begin，start，hate ，prefer等词后面可以接不定式。 点击规律：上述动词后面除接不定式外，还可以接动名词，意思无很大区别。 提示板：like doing指经常性动作，而like to do指一次性的动作。如： I like swimming，but I don't like to swim now．我喜欢游泳，但我现在不想游。 c．stop，forget，remember，go on ，try等词或短语后面可以接不定式。 点击规律：上述动词后面接不定式和接动名词意思大不相同。 1）stop to do sth．：停止一件事，去做另一件事。 stop doing sth．：停止正在做的事。 例句：When the teacher came in，the students stopped talking；when he came out，the students stopped to talk． 当老师走进来时，学生们停止说话；当老师走出去时，学生们又开始说话。 2）思考：forget，remember，go on，try等词或短语后面接不定式和动名词用法有何区别d．在find／feel＋it＋adj．＋to do sth．句型中，it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式。如： The man downstairs found it difficult to get to sleep． I feel it easy to recite the text． 点击规律：某些动词或短语后面既可以接动词不定式作宾语，又可接动名词作宾语，二者用法上的区别可以通过造句子加以区分，如上面stop例句。 3．作宾语补足语 a．下面的动词要求不定式做宾补：动词+宾语+动词不定式 ask要求，邀请 get请，得到 prompt促使 allow允许 forbid禁止 prefer喜欢，宁愿 announce
不定式及其短语在句子中用作定语_动词 英语语法.doc

You have no right to talk like that． 你没有权利这样讲话。 I’d like to have a chance to see more of him． 我愿意有机会多见见他。 3．有些动词和形容词后面常跟不定武，它们的同源名词也常跟不定式作定语: You haven’t kept your promise to write us regularly． 你没有遵守经常给我们寄信的诺言。(比较：Yon promised to．．．) She made no attempt to take a medical degree． 她没有企图拿医学学位。 We could see her anxiety to settle the thing herself． 我们看得出她很想自己来解决这个问题。(比较：She was anxious to） His eagerness to go with us was obvious． 他显然想和我们一道去。 4．有些不定式(短语)可作定语，相当于一个定语从句： Perhaps in years to come (=which are to come) we shall meet again 或许在未来的岁月中我们还会见面。 You are invited to a party(which is)to be held on Wednesday in our club．
不定式作定语
不定式作定语： 本节有关知识点与不定式作宾语、宾补不同，不需要记住那么多特殊动词的特殊用法。但它更强调理解。而且在实际应用过程中，本节容易出错的地方更多。这是学习者首先需要注意的。 要理解本节内容，就要注意分析不定式所修饰的名词与作定语的不定式关系 5.1宾语关系 5.1.1.四种表现形式： ?I have a letter to write.(动词宾语) ?He needs something to hope for(动词短语的宾语。hope for在意义上不可分割) ?I need a pen to write with。（不定式中介词宾语write with在意义上分割） 不能说write a pen，可以说write with a pen.其实是介词及其宾语在逻辑上一块作方式状语，来修饰不定式to write. 再如：I have no language partner to practice speaking English with.句子的本意不是说language partner自己practice speaking English，而是我practice speaking English，需要有language partner伴随。因此句后加了一个with，与language partner一块作逻辑意义上的伴随状语，修饰practice speaking English。 ?I need some paper to write on.（不定式中介词宾语write on在意义上分割） 分析类似上，其实是介词及其宾语在逻辑上一块作地点状语，来修饰不定式to write. 再来分析为什么下例为何错误: She has some children to take care of them. 动词词组To take care of与children已经构成了逻辑上的动宾关系，与前面的例句“I have a letter to write.”意义相同，还要them干嘛？ 综上所述，不定式作定语时，要时刻注意不定式与所修饰的名词的逻辑语义关系，时刻注意不定式动词后面是否需要加介词。 在书面语当中，带介词的动词不定式短语在句中作定语时往往可用“介词+关系代词（which或whom）+动词不定式”来代替。这种替代只适用于“不及物动词+介词”和“及物动词+宾语+介词”的结构。若不定式短语为固定的及物短语动词，则不能用“介词+关系代词（which或whom）+动词不定式”来代替。这一结构中的不定式的逻辑主语一般是句中的主语，或者是泛指的。若仔细分析句子中各成分之间的逻辑意义会发现这种“介词+关系代词（which或whom）+动词不定式”的不定式通常不能是被动形式。 He is the best man to consult the matter with. = He is the best man with whom to consult the matter. He needs a decent suit to go to the party in. = He needs a decent suit in which to go to the party. 而She has a lot of things to take care of 不等于She has a lot of things of which to take care . “She has a lot of things of which to take care”是一个错句。 如果不定式的不及物形式修饰time, place, way，moment等词时，可以省略掉不定式中不及物动词后面的介词：He has no place to live. 5.1.2.不定式作定语时的语态问题 ①I have a letter to write . 逻辑语义：“I”“write”“a letter”，to write用主动。当然也可以用被动。那么“写”的就不是“我”了。 ②He needs something to hope for。
分词作定语讲解
分词作定语 分词作定语时有下面几个特点： 1) 现在分词表示主动意义，过去分词一般表示被动含意。 2) 现在分词表示正在进行，过去分词表示状态或做完(完成)的事。 He rushed into the burning house ．他冲进了正在燃烧着的房子。 The child standing over there is my brother ．站在那儿的男孩子是我弟弟。 The room facing south is our classroom ．朝南的房间是我们的教室。 Have you got your watch repaired? 你拿到那个修好的表了吗? 分词作定语时的时间关系 一般来说，不定式所表示的动作发生在谓语动词所表示的动作之后；现在分词所表示的动作与谓语动词所表示的动作 同时发生；过去分词表示的动作发生在谓语动词所表示的动作之前。例如： Do you want to see the doctor to be sent for from Beijing? 你要见那位将从北京请来的医生吗？ Do you want to see the doctor working on the case report in the office? 你要见那位正在办公室里写病历的医生吗？ 共同点：单个分词做定语放在所修饰名词前(a swimming pool) ；分词短语（就是不仅仅由一个分词构成的用来修饰名词的短语the book written by Luxun ）做后置定语，即放名词后。 用过去分词还是现在分词做定语的判断关键：名词与该动作的关系 1.现在分词(Ving) 做定语： 从功能上看，现在分词做定语表示1）主动（及物）；2）进行（不及物）。 做定语：相当于一个定语从句(主动) Do you know the boy standing at the door? Do you know the boy who is standing at the door? A developing country needs aids. A country that/which is developing needs aids.

介词加which的用法
1）介词与先行词的习惯搭配 There is no way in which it could be brought back to the earth．（SEFC 2A L．55）（in与way是习惯搭配） 2）介词与定语从句中的动词，形容词的习惯搭配 These are the wires with which different machines are connected．（be connected with是习惯搭配） The author with whom all of us are familiar will visit our compa-ny．（be familiar with是习惯搭配） 3）同形的先行词，或定语从句中的动词，形容词表示不同的含义时，要根据其含义选用不同的介词。 I can't remember the age at which he won the prize． That is the age in which people live in peace and happiness． age在前句中意为“年岁”，与at搭配；在后句中意为“时期”，与 in搭配。 4）复杂介词须保持其完整形式，常见的复杂介词有on the top of，in the middle of，in front of，in spite of，at the back of，because of等。 We took a photo of rocket，the length of which was about 30me- tres．（SEFC 2A L．55） Sound is a tool by means of which people communicate with each other． They marched through the square，in the middle of which stood a monument． 5）短语动词中的介词不可与动词分开提至关系代词前。常见的短语动词有listen to，look at，depend on，pay attention to，take care of，look into，break into，get rid of，take part in，make use of，take hold of，catch hold of，catch up with，get along with，look forward to等。此时可用which，who，whom或that，也可将他们省略。 （误）This is the girl of whom he will take care． （正）This is the girl whom he will take careof． 6）当介词与定语从句中的动词或形容词联系紧密（但不是短语动词）时，介词也可放在动词或形容词的后面。但当介词与从句中的动词或形容词联系不紧密
to-do-sth不定式用法
动词不定式 巧记动词不定式的用法 具体用法 一、动词不定式的基本形式是“不定式符号to+动词原形”，有时可以不带to。动词不定式没有人称和数的变化。在句中不能单独作谓语，但仍保留动词的特性，可以有自己的宾语、状语等。动词不定式同它的宾语和状语一起构成不定式短语。 例如：to sell flowers in the street 在街上卖花to speak in the classroom 在教室里讲话 不定式省to有四种情况： 1、使役动词let, make, have等后接不定式。 例如：Let him go! The boss made the child labors work the whole night. 2、would rather, had better后。例如：You had better stay at home. 3、Why…/Why not…后。例如：Why not have a good rest on Sunday? 4、感官动词see, watch, look at, hear, listen to, smell, feel, find，notice 等后作宾语补足语，省to。 例如：I saw him dance. 注意：这些情况在被动语态中，不可省to. 例如：The child labors were made to work the whole night. 二、动词不定式具有名词、形容词和副词的特征，可以作句子的主语、表语、宾语、宾语补足语、定语和状语。 1、用作主语 直接把动词不定式置于句首的情况不多，多数情况用it作形式主语，把真正的主语——动词不定式置于句末，特别是不定式短语较长时。动词不定式作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。带疑问词的不定式短语作主语常置于句首。 例如：The head teacher said it was necessary to talk with his mother. How to make requests politely is important. 2、用作表语 动词不定式作表语，常用在be动词及seem, appear, happen等词之后，构成系表结构。说明主语的内容、性质、特征。例如：The best way to improve your English is to join an English club. She seem to be well-known. 3、用作宾语 ○1. 用作宾语的动词不定式，常用在动词ask, choose, agree，expect, hope, decide, learn，prefer, know，wish, want, would like / love等及物动词之后，构成动宾短语。 例如：We decided to talk to some students about why they go there.
过去分词作定语用法.
过去分词作定语用法 （Past Participles Used as Attributes） 过去分词作定语，在语态上，表被动；在时间上，表示动作已经发生或完成，与它所修饰的名词有逻辑（意义）上的动宾关系。过去分词作定语时，所修饰的名词在逻辑上相当于被动句中的主语，过去分词相当于谓语。 过去分词作定语表示动作在谓语动作之前发生，已经完成并具有被动意义。有时也不表示时间性。作定语的过去分词一般由及物动词变来，因为只有及物动词才有被动意义。例如：He is a teacher loved by his students. 他是个很受学生爱戴的老师。 也有用不及物动词的过去分词作定语的情况，一般作前置定语，它不表示被动意义，只表示主动意义，强调动作完成。不能像及物动词的过去分词那样放在名词后面作定语。例如：fallen leaves 落叶 retired workers 退休工人 the risen sun 升起的太阳 注意下面过去分词作定语的几种情况： 1. 单个的过去分词作定语一般放在被修饰的名词之前。例如： We needed much more qualified workers. 我们需要更多的合格的工人。 My friend is a returned student. 我的朋友是个归国的留学生。 单个分词也可以作后置定语，用以强调动作。例如： They decided to change the material used. 他们决定更换使用的材料。 2. 过去分词短语作定语要放在被修饰的名词后面，作后置定语，其作用相当于一个定语从句。例如： The student dressed in white is my daughter. =The student who is dressed in white is my daughter.)穿白色衣服的学生是我的女儿。 3. 如果被修饰的词是由every/some/any/no + thing/body/one所构成的复合代词或指示代词those等时，即使一个单一的分词作形容词用，也要放在被修饰词的后面。例如： Is there anything unsolved? 还有没解决的问题吗？ There is noting changed here since I left this town.自从我离开这个城镇以来，几乎没有什么变化。 4. 单个过去分词前加一名词或副词，常用连字符将它们连接起来构成一个复合形容词，放在其修饰的名词前，作前置定语。分词前加的名词表示分词的动作或行为主体，所加的副词表示方式、时间、程度、性质等意义。例如： This is a state-owned factory. 这是一家国营工厂。 This is our school-run factory. 这是我们的校办工厂。 5. 作前置定语的某些动词的过去分词的形式与作谓语或表语的过去分词的形式往往不一样。例如： 原形用作定语的过去分词用作表语或谓语的过去分词 drink drunken drunk
动名词、动词不定式、分词作定语区别.
动词的不定式,\分词\.动名词的区别及其用法、搭配。 答：非谓语动词包括动词不定式。动名词和分词三种形式,分词又包括现在分词和过去分词。这三种形式都是由动词变来的,但在句子中都不能作谓语,故这三种形式被称为非谓语动词。下面就这三种形式在用法上的区别浅析如下: 一、动词不定式和动名词在句子中均可作主语和表语 在表示一个具体的。个别的或将来的动作时,要用动词不定式。如: My job is to teach the first-year students grammar. To study English well is very important. 在表示比较抽象的一般的行为和动作时,二者可以互换。如: To climb mountains is a good form of exercise. Climbing mountains is a good form of exercise. 二、动名词、现在分词和动词不定式都可以作定语 1.动名词作定语时,和它所修饰的名词之间没有逻辑上的主谓关系,只表示被修饰名词的一般用途,必须位于名词之前。如: There is a swimming pool in our school. 2.现在分词作定语时,和它所修饰的名词之间有逻辑上的主谓关系,表示所修饰名词的特征。如: Listen to the singing bird. Who is the boy running towards us。 3.动词不定式作定语时,当所修饰的名词指人时,和它所修饰的名词之间有逻辑上的主谓关系。如: He is always the first to come to school. 当所修饰的名词指物时,和它所修饰的名词之间有逻辑上的动宾关系。如: I have a meeting to attend. 如果作定语的动词不定式中的动词是不及物动词,需加上相应的介词。如:
